The DEVILS Auction.

This popular play "a well received al
the Opera House last night. The com.
pany is superior to that generally EN-.
ployed in spectacular representations, and
is by far the best of it's kind that has 40.
peared before a Butte audience. 1.-The
DEVILS Auction" possesses merits not ros-
sessed by any spectacular piece, and that
is saying good deal. The scenery is mag.
nifcent beyond any exhibition here in a

effectively arrayed, and the epecialties
and novel. Thursday night an
entire change OF s~pecialties and the gor-
geous Peacock Ballet" will be presented.

to admirers Of spectacular shows.

METROPOLITAN FEATURES.

We are gratifed to that active
work in the construction of the Butte
street railway will begin this morning, as is
detailed in our local news columns. It is
the plan Of the company to have
tho line built and in operation be-
tween the depot and some central
point on Main street this season. This
they will operate and determine upon what
motor shall be adopted for the whole sys-
tenn. Electricity will probably be decided
upon a. the motive power. But it will first
be given . thorough test 50 the matter of a
motor will not be experimental when ap-
piled to the rest OF the street railway sys-
tenn Of the city. One thing is sure. and that
j. that Butte will have the latest appliances
In its street railway system. And that the
construction work will be thorough. no bet
ter assurance need be given than shat Mr..
j. =. Dawson, late Superintendent of the
Montana Union, is to have charge of the
work.
: In addition to this metropolitan feature,
.Butte's water works system is being ex-
tended as rapidly as possible. A new
Knowles pump and An extension of the
mains to South Butte and elsewhere. are
among the features OF the improvements
under way. Forty thousand dollars are
to be expended in adding betterments to
the plant which was before superior in
service to the works Of any other inter
mountain town OF the size and population
Of tho City Of Butte.

ago to Butte. an added metropolitan fea-
ture. And yet there are those who insist
on;calline this city a camp, thereby giving
people abroad a false impression of this
populous and prosperous center. The er.
soneous eastern idea that Butte is a town
Of tents should be corrected, and every
one OF our citizens may contribute to this
result by claiming our rights to the title of
city.
. Now, when our streets shall have been
improved, and something like a system of
sidewalks introduced, we will be in a po-
sition to surprise the stranger within our
gates. These improvements should encour-
jsge every citizen to aspire to the acquisi-
tion of q home to beautify and adorn,
with . view to permanent residence.

Want = Change Of Venue.
The word charivari is defined as q mock
serenade of discordant music, kettles,
tin horns, horse fiddles, etc., designed to
annoy and insult. 1t was at first directed
against widows who married a second
time, at an advanced age, but is o ex-
tended to other occasions Of nocturnal
annoyance of which We have q local case
in point. A few days since John Vreeland,
of Walkerville was welded and in the
evening after the celebration of the nuptials
instead of the accustomed serenade

During it's progress it seems the persons in
charge of the affair went wen beyond the
limit which good nature prescribes. and
missiles of various sorts were thrown aud
one or more persons injured. On the Goth
Mr.. Vreeland appeared before Justice
Lippincott and swore out a complaint
against Henry Waisman. John Cooley,
George O'Grady, Patrick Sidley, VIM.
Mulcare and Tot Nicholson, charging them
with disturbing the peace, etc. The de-
PENDANTS by their attorney. c. j. Walsh,
filed a demurrer to the complaint on the
ground that it did not state sufficient
cause to constitute a public offense. Mr..
Walsh also filed an affidavit for
A CHANGE OF VENUE,
alleging that the defendants had reasons to
heliova that +hoy could not get a fair and
impartial trial before Justices Lippincott,
Hamilton or Dingevon. This would leave
the case to be tried before Justice Herbert,
OF Walkerville. just why any Of the other
justices should be prejudiced toward the
defendants is not explained. No action
has as yet been taken in the matter. 1t
has attained some prominence as q post
nuptial occurrence, and the decision of the
justice before whom the case will be tried is
awaited with interest.
